- Abstract
-
This article argues that ethics and spirituality are interdependent. One cannot be practiced without taking the into account. Each needs to be shaped and informed by the other. This article intends to support this claim by briefly using the book and story of the Old Testament prophet Amos. Here, a brief but fair description and definition of postmodernism is provided in order to prepare the ground for an examination, discussion and reflection of the interdependency of ethics and spirituality rooted in the book of Amos. This is followed by a description and discussion of several principles or issues that are pertinent to address the interdependency between ethics and spiritua-lity as it relates the story of the Old Testament Amos. Principles and topics are based on the author’s perspective and experience within the Hispanic LatinAmerican/Hispanic Pentecostal Church. The author is speaking and writing from a Puerto Rican perspective, thus, many assertions, statements and conclusions may or may not apply to the entire Hispanic/Latino (a) context. Critical and reflective thoughts will conclude this article.
